The cause of the problem s BIND. The solution is very simple: djbdns.
For those that think it does not do zone transfers: axfrdns. It comes
with. It works.

While I am very serious that djbdns fixes all the problems that BIND
has, I marked this message as a troll as I know that some people *do*
foam at the mouth at the sight of the djb initials[1]. Other people are
firmly wedded to the way that BIND does things.

Those people I can do nothing for, except to say that there is another
way. I'm very happy using djbdns. It Just Works.

who, at RHCE class instead of fighting with BIND, downloaded, compiled,
installed, and configured djbdns to solve the problem.

[1] djb has his own ideas, some good and some questionable. It is
    possble to use djbdns without using his other tools (such as
    daemontools), or being forced into a non-UNIXy filesystem layout. In
    short, djbdns acts like any other UNIX program.
